Today is arguably the biggest day of my career (a move i co-wrote is out!!!) and i spent the morning answering in depth yet confusing questions on how a steering wheel works to my 5 yr old (she was not satisfied by the standard information of turning it left makes you go left, etc.)
Business idea: a handyman/babysitter service.
Need something fixed while you watch your own kids: handyman is on their way!
Need someone to watch your kids while you do a simple yet treacherous task that is impossible to do while keeping a toddler safe: babysitter is on their way!

If you’re on the fence about having kids I just plopped into bed and felt something squishy and it was a pile of scrambled eggs. Not on a plate. Just…there.

I just assembled a water table that had directions like ‘there are no screw holes you just have to push the screws really hard through this thick plastic’. Anyways, curses to Step2 and whatever middle management dweeb wanted to save 10 cents a unit by getting rid of the screw holes

A trash truck during kid awake hours: a beautiful thing, a beacon of hope, 5 solid minutes of entertainment
A trash truck with its reverse beeps going during kid nap time somehow breaking through a loud sound machine: a scourge upon humanity, a plague

Sometimes you’re just going through life, doing all the things, and other times it stops you in your tracks when you realize that you have to cook yet another meal. Even though you do it 3 times a day. Sometimes it just hits harder.

Give a mom 45 mins alone and it’s shocking how much she can get done. Small workout, shower, 2 loads of laundry in process, unpack a camping trip, and most importantly: FEED HERSELF

Any gardeners here? What do i do with an abundance of cucamelons? I’ve pickled all I can cram in the fridge, and we can’t keep up with the fresh ones. My friends are tired of them. They are becoming my whole personality at this point.
